Just Like Lana.



  1960's Dress, White Heels: Thrifted. Vintage Earrings: Gift. Lipstick in MAC'S Myth. Hair Extensions: c/o Irresistible Me.  Hello for the second time today! I wore this very vintage outfit last Thursday inspired by Lana Del Rey in the National Anthem music video. I've had this beauty of a 60's dress for almost a month now after thrifting it in Akron. I've found it frustrating on how to wear it though, and what exactly to wear it with. It's a somewhat uncomfortable polyester fabric that doesn't breath well, and the pretty details on the bodice and waist are what I wanted to keep the focus on. So with these two problems, I knew I needed 1) a somewhat cool day to wear it and 2) to keep the outfit simple.  I wish you could see the details of this dress a little better in the photos--it's just beautiful!

Denim Boiler



Denim jumpsuit: 1 year ago-ish from H&M.  Try G-Star.  Boots: YSL men.  Saw similars from JCrew, Ringo and 6pm. Nail bracelet: Local shop in Philladelphia. Similars CUSP. Moment of silence for the Cartier version. Hat: H&M Paris Collection. Similar at FreePeople. Bag:Alexander Wang (found in white on a rare sale) Someone thought my jumpsuit was from APC - I was right chuffed.  I've had it since last year and you know it's really only a matter of time before you start seeing the darker version and this tweed jumpsuit on the blog when it's cooler.  Got to love recycling your wardrobe or just wearing your things regularly.  There's a novelty... I've had these YSL boots for years now but they still require someone else to pull the ruddy things off!  They're called the Johnny boots and they came in loads of leathers and colors before they got discontinued. Now there are Saint Laurent versions

Camouflage

Your bones are made of the same dust as the planets, your lungs are breathing the same air as the migrating butterflies, and your blood is pumping because of the love and care of thousands. You are not as broken as you think you are. You are full of the world.



Blurr dress, Cotton On Body t-shirt, Fashion Addict bag, Windsor Smith sandals I’ve always been a bit of a fan of black. I usually have to give myself a gentle reminder to inject a bit of colour into my outfits, otherwise I have been known to be accused of being a goth. Every now and again though, I’m willing to bear the brunt of a couple of labels, and take to the streets dressed head to toe in black.  Last summer, I was a bit of a fan of this layered outfit. It’s such an easy way to jazz up your wardrobe and get a little bit more wear out of your clothes. Add a studded bag like this one, and I’m set, even if it is just for a shoot on a coastal road. As you probably saw on Instagram (@prettydressesinthelaundry), I finally got my hair cut. I love the...

What I’m Wearing: Drop Dead Tank, Bank Fashion Leather Trackpants, Nike Dunks via Zalando, ASOS Sunglasses & Beanie God, I love these leather trackpants – in fact, secretly I am a big fan of all trousers with an elastic waistband. Dressing slouchy is something we all have to do sometimes. Especially for me this week, I’ve been slaving and shouting at my computer till the late hours of the night. I wish I had studied web-design at University, pulling my whole e-boutique into a fully functional e-commerce sight has been a little bit of a stressful endeavour. But Audrey Leighton is finally set to launch on October 3rd! More tomorrow! Photos: Catherine O’Hara

5 Ways to Wear a T-Shirt Day 2!



Watch: Mother's engagement watch (..that doesn't work!)  Oookay so orientation week for the first years is actually officially over (as of Sunday!) and I am no longer obligated to wear this shirt (hooray!) (it is being retired into my pajama drawer...), but this series will continue from last week! These are again my favorite pair of pants (gahh patterned pants are just my favorite thing to wear!) and I think my scarf/hijab, which has both shades of navy and red, pulls everything nicely together! Thanks again for a great discussion on my last Social Action Sunday about Islam (if you missed it you should def. check it out!),
